After the great victory over Godoy Cruz at the Monumental, where he won, appreciated and beaten, River worked normally this Monday and the players will rest this Tuesday. In addition to the victory and the great performance of the team, the coaching staff have the peace of mind that all the players have finished well, so they can start planning their visit to Junín without worries.
On Sunday River will face Sarmiento at the Eva Perón stadium and another good news for the fans has arrived from Junin: the verdant management has announced that tickets will arrive for non-members, i.e. for neutrals, so Millionaire fans will be able to buy them for accompany Demichelis’ team, who are second, one point behind leaders San Lorenzo in Lega Professionisti. Obviously they will not be able to wear any River Plate badge.
Nor will it be cheap for them as resort costs are high. Tickets will start at 10,000 pesos, the popular ones, while open stalls will cost 15,000 pesos and covered ones, the most expensive sector, 20,000 pesos.
It wouldn’t be the first time River fans could accompany their team to the Interior. Not counting the duels with Banfield, for the tie-break of the Champions Trophy, and Racing de Córdoba, for the Argentine Cup, this year River’s men were already present on the field: it was the first meeting against Central Córdoba, in Santiago del Estero and in the third, against Belgrano, when neutrals were admitted in the Madre de Ciudades and visitors directly, in Mario Alberto Kempes.
“There are several meetings still pending, and in one of them the club will be told that it will not be able to sell more than three tickets per person. We will check that there are no massive sales. We also need to define how many police officers the operation will have. The club is “Responsible as the organizer of the event. Let it be very clear that there will be a neutral audience and it will not be possible to enter the pitch in River shirts or colours, ” APREVIDE’s César Antonelli assured Junín’s “La Verdad Online” outlet.
And on how they will control the entrance to the bars, he added: “There will be a police check on ticket sales. If he doesn’t comply with this, he will face penalties. We are doing intelligence work on the River bars to ban them from entering the field, even if they have a ticket. We will be very strict on this issue.”
And can there be a change in playing time? In principle it is agreed for Sunday at 21:15 but it could happen at 17 or 18 to have more natural light.
